Freda Creek Hydroelectric Project

Review Status: BC EAO: No application CEAA: No applicationEPA Status: Project not entered in any of BC Hydro's calls for energy

Plutonic Power Corporation originally listed Freda Creek among its generation projects. In 2012, the City of Powell River and the Tla’amin (Sliammon) First Nation announced that Tees'Kwat Land Holdings Ltd had acquired the water application, and that they were jointly forming a company, and would advance the project together. The proponents are hoping to bypass the BC Hydro competitive "calls" process and be directly awarded an EPA with BC Hydro. Freda Creek is just north of Earl's Cove. The project could have a nominal capacity of 35 megawatts (MW).
